Things to do in Chiang Rai Province

This Chiang Rai Instagrammable Places day trip is a long but worthwhile experience if you want to see the main highlights in one go. Every stop is touristy, so it's best to set expectations early. Mae Kachan Hot Spring was a quick break where I grabbed coffee and bread from nearby shops. The Long Neck Village ticket is 300 THB and felt more like a shopping area than a cultural visit, but I treated it as support for the tribe and bought a scarf. Lunch was at a local Thai restaurant before visiting the White Temple, which is beautiful and well crafted but very crowded; the golden toilet building was a fun detail. The Blue Temple was stunning and my personal favorite, though small. Lalita Café was magical and great for nature lovers, with reasonably priced drinks, but extremely crowded. The 3.5hour drive back was tiring, but overall the tour is affordable, well organized, the guide was informative, and the trip is worth it.

The whole experience was so wonderful and we visited majestic places. I also like the buffet style of eating for our lunch and not to mentioned our tour guide Vicky is so helpful and caring, she even gave us fresh pineapples for our snack.

Got picked up in the right time in accordance to the itinerary. Wanmai (our tour guide) is very friendly and also knowledgeable about the places you’ll go to. Had a lot of fun because there is only 11 of us, and everyone is friendly. Met new friends during this tour. Good for solo travelers like me!

Our tour guide was friendly and professional, and she shared a lot of informative historical background with us. We visited many places in just one day, which made it a long schedule, but it was a truly great and rewarding experience.

Thank you for a great tour! our tour guide P'Sing was very knowledgeable and was very patient. P'Sing also had great recommendation of coconut ice creams and hidden spots on how to take perfect photographs. P'Sing himself was a great photographer as he helped our family take many great photos. I would definitely recommend this tour and P'Sing as your private tour guide.

The tour was wonderful! The tour guide Joe was very communicative and kept us informed throughout the trip. The driver was friendly and made the journey comfortable. All the places we visited were iconic and truly worth seeing. Thank you for the great experience!

The guide was great and informative i liked that our guide wore company shirt so we could easily spot them. I also liked that he would brief us in the van or be hand so it gave us more time to look around. The temples went to were amazing highly recommend.

We had the most amazing day with our tour guide Sunny. He is very enthusiastic, talented, and took good care of us. I have never had a tour guide like him before. The service he provides from the heart truly sets him apart from others. 🫶 From excellent service, great trivia, handmade bamboo crafts, special sky lantern activity over sunset in the middle of rice fields, to his careful driving - this day tour is one of the most incredible experiences I've had so far as a frequent traveller. Anybody would be lucky to have Sunny as guide. The tour itinerary itself is packed with unique and grand temples (something the Thai are really good at) and cultural/historical significance. It was also an awe inspiring experice to meet the "Kayang" (long neck tribe) women and to realize that those rings are actually heavy! What a sacrfice to wear those daily from a very young age. Lunch was a great selection of organically grown healthy and yummy food 👍

Good weather despite rainy seasons during this period. Worth a day trip with relaxing g combination of the White Temple, Yayo Farm Cafe and Sheep Farmvile. Hotspring is merely a break stop considering the journey. Worth value as trip include drinks and lunch. Pickup and transfer to/from hotel we stayed. Hassle free and relaxing day trip! Highly recommend
